I just got a PhatBoy MIDI controller. However its software version is
v1 so its mode III only allows me sending CC in the range 1-13. I
wonder if there's out there any ALSA MIDI translator which allows me
to change this CC realtime to different CC more useful for
i.e. zynaddsubfx.
Any ideas welcome.
Cordially, Ismael

Every decent modular synth environment like Pd or Supercollider can do
this. Pd is easy to learn, so you may want to start there. You can
start Pd as "pd -noaudio" to not make it run without its audio engine
and with "-nogui" to not even show its GUI.

I guess at some unknown point in time I'll learn enough FLTK to slap
together some kind of GUI for a standalone MIDI event mapper. Holborn's
midirgui would be a good container for such functions, but he doesn't
seem interested in expanding it.
Best,

So maybe pd's the way to go, as certainly I'm the kind of guy who
takes his car across the street to get milk. ;)

I wouldn't compare this to using the car to get milk but more to
having a swiss knife ready for small tasks by learning at least one
"scripting language for music" like Pd, SC or maybe Python etc. Then
instead of having to search the net to find a ready-made tool for a
very specific problem, you would just write a little tool yourself in
a couple of minutes and could get on with the real work.
I'd consider learning C for much more like driving a car to get milk. ;)

This is the ultimate Linux debate. Ismael is not an average user. He is happy
to ride the self-built swiss army pushbike. Part of the appeal of Linux is
that you can simply script it yourself. If it turns out to be a useful
script, you can package it up and share it around. Some newbies actually
regard this as an interesting possibility. No, of course they're not normal
either. ;)

I expected pd to be more than capable enough to do the task, I simply
wanted to know if there was something lighter.
Maybe a good moment to put pd to work, then...
